First of all, Aaron holds no home run records -- Barry Bonds hold the record for most homers in both a season and a career.
Secondly, Jeter didn't come close to either -- he hit 260 home runs in his entire career, and never more than 24 in a season.
Derek Jeter broke Lou Gehrig's hit record on September 11, 2009, becoming the New York Yankees all-time hit leader.
Derek Jeter is expected back in July, after the All-Star break.
Derek Jeter is expected to come back following the 2013 All-Star break.
Yep.
Maybe he couldn't take the publicity.
During the broadcast during the NYY/LAA game on 8/9/08, it was discussed that Derek Jeter only needed 27 hits over his final 19 games at The Stadium to break Gehrig's record. Since then, Jeter had 3 hits on 8/15, 2 hits on 8/16, and went 4-for4 today (8/17). Again, if the info I heard is correct, Jeter should only need 18 more hits over the remaining 16 home games to become the all-time hits record holder in Yankee Stadium. Derek Jeter broke Lou Gehrig's hit record at the stadium on September 16, 2008. He now owns the record, that stands at 1,274 hits.
On September 11, 2009.
1996 Derek Jeter has won five World Series (all with the Yankees); 1996, 1998, 1999, 2000, and 2009. For his accomplishments in the 2000 World Series (.409 batting average, 9 hits, 2 home runs) he was awarded the World Series MVP. Jeter also went the World Series in 2001 and 2003 with the Yankees but lost in them both.
Yes, it has just been reported that the two have split up.
He didn't play because both the Yankees and Derek thought the time during the All-Star break was better suited for Derek to get some much needed rest and to get healthy for the remainder of the season. Sports Media 101 sportsmedia101.com
The actress is Minka Kelly. She is best known for her role in the TV show Friday Night Lights and as NY Yankees Captain Derek Jeter's current girlfriend.
Maris broke Babe Ruth's record of 60 homeruns in 1961.Sammy Sosa and McGwire chased the record in 1998 and finaly that season McGwire broke Maris' current record of 61 and made the new record 70 homeruns. Also, in 1998 Sammy Sosa broke Maris' record to make it 66 homeruns. Later, in 2001 Barry Bonds broke McGwire'srecord and made the modern day record a total of 73 homeruns. Bonds went on to brake Hank Aarons record for most homeruns in a career. Aarons record was 755 and Bondsmade it 756.BUT Sosa, McGwire and Bonds all have strong evidence against them that they have taken steroids. So I believe their records should not count!
